what makes you hate having it so much as a daily?

Foolinaround · 12-30-2009, 03:25 PM

I love the car,but since i dont have money to keep a daily and that i cant keep it now. since my rents did pay for it (which i still owe them) ill talk to them about what they think i should do.

And i hate having it as a daily because it had a lot more wrong with it then i was told,or even rich knew. The parts are few and far between for it,and expensive at that. I feel like im 15 getting dropped off at work. it sucks being limited to bumming rides.

Erik · 12-30-2009, 03:28 PM

Yea, thats the situation im in with my car. oil leaking. vac leaks. random sounds. ugh.

jpalamar · 12-30-2009, 03:28 PM

They aren't bad cars, they just need their services done. My old G1 Talon had 180k on it with no issues. Did the timing belt at 120k and it never broke down once. Granted I did my normal maintance but no failures. Trans failed at 180 but engine is still strong. Started right up after sitting in the garage for 3 years. Seafoam, fresh fluids and it ran perfect again! I was shocked. Gave it to my buddy who is yet to finsih it.... apparently not having a job keeps him really busy lol

Erik · 12-30-2009, 03:32 PM

idk...ive always been meticulous with my cars. i have a binder with EVERY reciept, i write down the milage for every little thing, im OCD with routine maintenance and fixing common issues...yet my cars always end up failing....im just unlucky.

Foolinaround · 12-30-2009, 03:32 PM

Motor isn't the original,and that is the only thing thats really right with the car.

This tranny was beat to ****.

Erik · 12-30-2009, 03:34 PM

Its usually the bass cheap ass syncros that fail in the trans. my 1G made it to 180k and never changed the fluid. My 2G that I jsut bought has 150k and no signs of bad syncros. Smooth as butter.

Is $98 a good price for a radiator on an 03 Chevy Cavalier? I have no idea how to compare prices.
